  • HT1338 Is there an application or software I can use in my Mac Book Pro as a journal?

    I just want to know if there is a free application or software to use as a jourmal in my mac book pro, I want to be able to record a journal and keep updating it daily.

    Purchase iLife 11  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

    Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD.   I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, DVD Creator, Wondershare, and others.  None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie.

  • Cannot sign in to Apple ID on new Mac Book Pro.

    I bought a brand new 13inch Mac Book Pro last night. However, I am not able to sign in with my Apple ID and password. I have restarted the process various times, I have shut the computer down various times, I have loggen into my Apple account on my other devices to ensure that my password and ID are correct, I have also registered my new Mac Book under my apple account, and I am 100% my wifi password is correct. It's been about 12 hours, close to 20 attempts, and still I am unable to sign in. I keep getting the same message: "Counldn't sign in because of a server error. Try signing in again." Any thoughts?

  • When updating to the latest OS X my wife's Mac Book Pro locked at a grey screen with an apple icon and status bar.  Is there any way to recover the data on the laptop and complete the OS install?

    When my wife's Mac Book Pro was being updated to the latest version of OS X the laptop locked up at a grey screen with the Apple icon and status bar.  Is there any way to recover the data and complete the install?  I have not tried anything yet because of the data issue.  I am not sure which OS X version as I did not install the software.

  • Hi I have a new mac book pro. I am swopping over from an imac. An authorizethis computer message has come up for an old itunes account. I have no idea what the password is. Is there a way to find out or transfer to my new account?

    Hi I have a new mac book pro. I am swopping over from an imac. An authorize this computer message has come up for an old itunes account. I have no idea what the password is. Is there a way to find out or transfer to my new account?

    Let me see if I've gotten this right! You want to remove an account from BOTH machines? Do this for your new machine first, then for the other.
    Click the Apple logo on the top left of the screen, System Preferences, Users and Groups (under Systems), unlock the lock in the window if its locked (you need to know the password), select the user that you wish to remove, and click the - sign next to the + sign for Login options. A window will pop up with some options. Select Delete this user and securely, and click 'Delete user'.
    After this, do an update from the App Store.
    Thats all there is to it.
    For the other machine repeat the process except for one thing. Before you delete the user in this case YOU, you will have to give Administrator priviledges to your son bu checking the box 'Allow user to administer this computer'.
    Do NOT do anything from Finder ... if you dont know how to fix the consequences of the problems caused.
    There is no need to unauthorize your iTunes account on your new machine. Do it on the old machine though.

  • I transferred data from my external hard drive to my restored Mac Book Pro via migration assistant and now my external hard drive in time capsule has red minus signs. How do I get rid of that without getting rid of any of my data?

    I used Migration Assistant to transfer my data from my external hard drive via Time Capsule to my restored Mac Book Pro. When I now go into Time Capsule I there are red minus signs in the corner of all the folders that are contained in my back up. How do I get rid of this and access my previous back-ups?

    Select the drive and Finder > Get info and at the bottom "ignore permissions on this volume"
    You can copy the files, but the ownership on the files still belongs to the other user account, once your done copying, then perform a #6 Reset Users Permissions and that will set all the ownership to that account.
    ..Step by Step to fix your Mac
    Another method is to copy the entire folder, then change it's permissions.

  • Mac Book Pro Wifi Data Locked up/freezes.

    Hello, i have had this problem now for about 3 months.  I have tried to search for the issue but i may be missing some key terms so if this is a known topic or somone can provide a link to a solution i would love it.
    So i primarly use my MBP on wifi in the home, i have an ipad on wifi, pc laptop on wifi and a hardwired TV.  Sometimes while on the computer all of a sudden i will stop getting data from the internet, usualy i notice because a webpage loads about half way or does not load at all then i get the thinking wheel in the web browser.  If i turn off the wifi card, wait about 15 seconds then turn it back on it always comes right back on and away i go.
    For some details  It is a Mac Book Pro 8,2 16gig ram, OS10.6.8  all security and software is up to date.  I recently put a new hard drive in the machine and use the migration assistant to transfer everything across from the old one but with a fresh install of the OS.  The problem existed before and after the HDD swap.  I use Chrome as the primary browser, but it is not application spesfic, mail and safari both loose the network data as well.  I do not have a lot of large downloads, 90% of my network use is e-mail, and web no bit torrents or streaming on this computer.  Finaly to see if it was the router while the laptop is locked up the other devices on wifi and hard lined all still work fine.  Also according to the laptop i still have 100% wireless strength and connection, i dont have any other wifi networks so i can not try to switch to another one, the only fix i have found is to click "turn airport off" wait a second, then back on.  Also time does not seem to be a part of it, i can have the machine running all day for several days no issues, then it goes down, or i just open it up and in an hr it locks.
    To me i hate to hear that it is a bad network card in the computer, but if anyone knows if there is maybe a setting or somthing i can reset on the network card that may be setting me up on a "timed lease" of my ip address, thanks for the help.

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Boot from your original install DVD and run Repair Disc and Repair Permissions, this might then allow you to Boot as normal and have all your data intact.
    If not then you need to re-install the OS from that same DVD but select 'Archive Install' and it will preserve your User data and Applications.

  • Mac Book Pro locks up after initial boot-up

    I have a late 2011 Mac Book Pro, 2.4 GHz running OS X 10.9.2.  During normal operations I am typically using  4-5 GB of RAM.  I have a 750 GB hard drive with 671 GB of free drive space.  After a normal boot-up the computer completely locks-up/freezes and I get the pin wheel indefinately.  I have tried the following items so far in an attempt to rectify the issue:
    1) Reset NVRAM
    2) Verfied that the issue remains with and without external keyboard, mouse, network cable and thunderbolt display attached.
    3) Verfied that there is no disk in the optical drive.
    4) Started up via the Recovery drvie and ran all disk utilities (repair disk, verify disk, and repair permisisons).  Both repair disk and verfiy disk came back without any issues noted.  Repair premissions came back with some iBooks errors that it said it fixed.  This has not corrected my problem.
    5) Resinstalled the entire OS from the disk utility in Recovery Mode.  This seemed to correct my problem for almost a week but the same issue started happening again. 
    It should be noted that this issue started within a day or two of loading the 10.9.2 update.  The machine appears to run fine from Safe Mode, which I am using now to write this message.  I was also able to use Safe Mode to run a web conference at work this morning with out any additional issues so I can't believe it is a hardware issue. 
    Any help and/or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • My mac book pro will not fully boot up. I have the grey background with the apple sign and the timer going round...but 20 minutes later still no desktop

    My mac book pro will not fully boot up. I have the grey background with the apple sign and the timer going round...but 20 minutes later still no desktop

    You could try doing a hard shut down (holding the power button or yanking the battery) and then doing a safe boot by holding the shift key at startup:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
    Also, not sure if this applies in your case, but I've had that happen when there's a USB drive inserted either in the computer or a connected external keyboard.  I did a hard shut down, removed the drive and it went through a normal start up.

    You can use iCloud to lock it if you had that set up. Otherwise, the only thing to do is report the theft to the police. You may want to contact your homeowner's insurance to see if it would be worth filing a claim with them also.
